Video: Holy moly, this Adam Borics flying-knee knockout at Bellator 196 is hellacious

Hungary’s own Adam Borics shined in front of his home country, scoring a ridicuous highlight-reel knockout win against overmatched Bellator newcomer Teodor Nikolov in front of a home crowd at Bellator 196.

After original opponent James Gallagher was lost due to injury, Nikolov (11-2 MMA, 0-1 BMMA) stepped in on short notice to fight Borics (7-0 MMA, 2-0 BMMA). He wasn’t ready for the task, though. The lightweight contest was absolutely one-sided and ended with this incredible flying-knee knockout.

Borics cruised through the first round and had his way with Nikolov in striking and on the ground. In the second frame, however, he opened up big time with his offense. Just 90 seconds into the second frame, Borics unleashed a hellacious switch flying knee.

The left knee landed flush to Nikolov’s chin and side of his head, and the fight was immediately over at the 1:30 mark of Round 2.
